15 sed eadem die reddes ei pretium laboris sui ante solis occasum, quia pauper est, et ex eo sustentat animam suam : ne clamet contra te ad Dominum, et reputetur tibi in peccatum.


Commentary on this verse  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 15. The desire to do good is not to be condemned because what is evil or mistaken may proceed from it; nor are truths themselves to be condemned (per se) though they may be professed and cherished from an imperfect motive: guilt is imputed to man when it proceeds from the will and understanding together, and is made his own by actual commission.
